When Mog’s garden disappears under an enormous white flappy thing, she is very unhappy, and does a bad thing – in Mr Thomas’s chair! But when the cat show takes place inside the white flappy thing, it’s the perfect place for Mog to make her family proud…

Familie Thomas hat es nicht leicht mit ihrem liebenswerten, aber auch etwas schusseligen Kater Mog. Ständig stolpert das drollige Fellknäuel von einem Missgeschick ins nächste.

Oder er denkt einfach nicht daran, dass er sich eigentlich nicht in die frisch bepflanzten Geranien-Kästen setzen darf. Ärgerlich wird es, wenn Mog einfach nicht mehr einfällt, wo die Katzenklappe ist.
